One more thing. On the recommendation of Dan Q (here), I tapped into a 12v for the power with a spade plug at the fuse box.

For the violet/violet-black I used a different spade plug in the fuse box. Should I instead splice-tap into the one I know for sure is a 12v (i.e. tap the red power wire I already know works)?

Thanks.

That one spade plug (listed in DqnQ's guide) is a good constant +12V supply. If you are using another, make sure that it actually is live, as some the spades are not. Also, make sure you have a fuse one that connection, as that spade is on a 60A circuit.
